Silent hill for teenagers....Creepy and pretty terrifying.

The potential to be made into a film is definitely lurking there.

The four main characters, teenagers on the threshold of their senior year, are interesting and quirky. Each has a different personality that gels well with the others but doesn't then blend into one boring entity.
    Set in 1989, a time before the internet and mobile phones (as we know them now and the actual ability to carry one) Dagger Hill has a small town charm. A charm that contrasts against the awful things that happen there.

This is at least a young adult read with themes of horror and violence. It could easily sit on a shelf with books written by such greats as King and Laymon. It's the kind of book that crawls into your thoughts when you least expect it and creates vivid scenes in your mind.

This film failed to keep my interest as it was just not that exciting. It was described as a horror but this is a huge exaggeration! The four teenagers get locked away in a bunker, from there follows a couple of the characters' explanations of what happened whilst in there. It is quite straightforward and is spelled out for you so you aren't left wondering at the end of the film.

I love Alan Tudyk, he's an actor that needs more recognition!

"I loved the book. I’m probably one of those readers who judges movie adaptations far too harshly, but I was very excited to see the movie and when it came out, not disappointed at all. So incredible. I loved Logan Lerman, and Ezra and Emma as well. The cinematography, the acting, everything was just spectacular. A special film, especially to teenagers growing up in this world and finding out completely who you are."
